3 observations on the state of the realm

Justice Amit extends a hand to the legislative and executive branches after trampling their authority? Very well. Please keep the court from intervening in non-legal matters and limit its ambition to manage the entire state. This will be the beginning of restoration.

Shlomo Mantzur's story is a testament to the bloody history under Muslim rule

As a child in Baghdad, Shlomo Mantzur climbed onto the roof of his home and watched as an Arab mob filled the streets. He witnessed men, women, and children being murdered, limbs severed, women raped, synagogues destroyed, and Torah scrolls desecrated. Unlike previous massacres and pogroms, the horrors of October 7 could have been prevented. That is why the sense of abandonment and helplessness remains unbearable.

The illusion of security mechanisms

Israel, interested in the PA's survival as an effective administrative authority for Palestinian life in Jueda and Samaria and concerned about Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad attempting an Oct. 7-style massacre in these territories, must act independently against Palestinian terror infrastructure.

There was only one Holocaust

If what our hostages are experiencing in Hamas captivity is a "Holocaust," what will we do when exposed to greater horror, heaven forbid – from where will we mine additional words to contain such evil?

What if Israel was defeated?

The destruction of Israel wouldn’t just be apocalyptic for Jews. It would be terrible for the Palestinians, who have spent decades believing that they would have the opportunity to prosper once Israel is destroyed.
